Here at Riversdale Clocks we offer what we think is a very unique service.
"We specialise in making cases for antique movements & dials"
We have been repairing and restoring Longcase clocks since 1986. Over that time we have worked on hundreds of clock cases, from early eighteenth century oak cases with square brass dials, to late nineteenth century mahogany cases with painted break arch dials, and every one has been different.

Through the many years we have repaired bases that have been damaged and full of rot, doors that have become twisted and cupped, and hoods that have been cut down to accommodate low ceilings...
We have replaced veneers and stringing damaged and lost over many years of neglect, as well as correctly restoring cases that have been badly repaired or butchered by the not so reputable dealers and inexperienced restorers.

All through this period we have acquired a wealth of knowledge on case construction and their makers, which has enabled us to offer this unique service of making a clock case for any movement and dial, in the period and style of its maker.
Now we can pass this knowledge and these skills on to you....

Although, as your case is made by hand and finished in the same way as the original case would have been, it can become very difficult to tell from an antique Longcase clock.
